London Evidence given at the in
quiry by the board of trade into the
sinking of the steamship Vestris last
November dealt Tuesday principally
with instances of overloading charg
ed against the ship.
Alfred Woods, general manager of
the Lamport & Holt line showed that
in 1926 the British board of trade
has asked for an explanation of the
fact that the log of the Vestris on
her voyage in July of that year had
registered overloading, the vessel's
freeboard being 3 feet 11 1-1 inches.
The owners then sought informa
tion from their New York agent, who
explained that the ship had been
left at the wharf in that condition
but enough water had been pumped
out before sh esailed to bring her to
the proper mark unfortunately, the
explanation continued, the log entry
was made by the chief officer who
was unaware of this circumstance.
BIRTHDAY PARTY POSTPONED
j The birthday party that was to
have been given on Thursday aftcr
j noon by the ladies aid society of
the Mynard church, has been post
poned owing to bad weather condi
tions until a later date. Watch for
announcements.
New York The small town is
destined to play an increasingly im
portant part in development of indus
try in the United States, according
to Robert S. Binkard, speaking be
fore the New York State-wide Eco
nomic Congress here. Mr. Binkard is
a partner in James S. Oliphant & Co.,
members of the New York Stock Ex
change. The advantages of concentration in
many cities are far outweighed by
the costs of congestion. Mr. Binkerd
said. Anyone who looks with un
prejudiced eyes at the country's larg
est cities must realize that they con
tain thousands of businesses which
could be conducted with more profit
in smaller communities, he declared.
"You can ship a piano from Chi
cago to New York for about $14,
but you can hardly haul it 20 blocks
through New York City for that
amount," he continued.
"It costs nearly twice as much to
transport fresh fruits and vege
tables through the city itself as it
costs to produce them and transport
them nearly halfway across the
continent."
Most communities, Mr. Binkerd
said, "put the cart before the horse"
in attempting to atract industries.
"They frequently strive with eon
cesions to lure new industry to the
town," he said. "The right way to
start is for the community to take
what it has and try to ma"ke it more
prosperous.
"The defects of many small town
businesses are obvious lack of
knowledge of costs, lock of knowl
ege of possible markets, lack of
merchandising skill and failure to
keep up with the times are among
the chief of them. But if those prob
lems are intelligently met it will be
the gjeatest selling argument for the
inducement of other industries to lo
cate there."

HIGH COURT IS CAUGHT UP
If the designers of the reformed
calendar will so arrange it that those
rainy spring days will fall on some
day other than Sunday, they will
gain additional converts.
Washington For the first time in
its history the supreme court today
found itself virtually caught uo with
its work. Chief Justice Taft an
nounced from the bench that aside
from the cases set for argument this
week there were only nineteen cases
which were ready for hearing, and
that it was not feasible to hear them
at the present time because of the
distance of counsel from Washing
ton. Only a few years ago the docket
of the supreme court was so badly
congested that several years were
required to reach a case not advanc
ed out of order. It is now possible
for the court to dispose of all busi
ness which reaches it within a few
months of the end of each term.

For those 21 years he waged relent
less and colorful war on the outlaws
and when he retired the gangs had
been permanently broken up. His
most famous exploit was hte capture
of a Cherokee quarter-breed, who
had killed nine men, and whom he
followed with a poose into the Ozark
mountains before capturing and kill

i like to run a newspaper column for

j might exchange Jobs for a day. We
j believe one day would be enough for
us, but if he wanted to stay on our
ijob longer, we'd let him.
